Webgame Wednesday: Hexagon

Hexagon is a maddening, impossible-to-survive puzzle actioner. Like, the old arcade hit Tempest, but in reverse, you must pilot your avatar though a tunnel-like maze. There are no enemies to fight, just a tiny, triangular speck to steer in a circular pattern. The walls close in on you at a frightening pace. In seconds, you'll be dead. The key is to get into the game's Zen. Relax your eyes and sense the pattern that the walls are forming. Now, let your fingers follow that pattern: left, right, leeeeeft! Boom.
